thus far nnd no farther.
Thn leaguo Issue wns featured by

The spnrnto pence Issue, Oover
nor Cox declared, "will remain In
the public mind."
"This, after all," he continued, "Is
the crux of the situation. The re
actionary candidate promises you
nothing but n proposal which, nt
Its best, promises nothing but
months nnd possibly yenrs of delay.
On tho other hand, we promise you
this that after the fourth of March,
with tho least amount of conversa

The democrntlo randldato de
nounced particularly the republican
argument that the leaguo would In
crease probability of war.
Denying also that the league could
order American soldiers overseas,
Oovernor Cox continued:
"The republican lenders. In declar

At this point tho governor spoke
